Thanks April!! I really appreciate your response.
I did as you suggested and things are going rather well, thus far. He actually called me the very next evening and has called every evening since. The conversation flows very smoothly, he leads with many questions, has much to say himself, seems open about his past relationships, and shares more than the typical surface stuff…it can be rather content rich at times. He asked me out for this Friday and I told him I already had plans to meet some girlfriends to see a local band playing around 8ish. So he asked to take me to dinner beforehand, I accepted.
I really like that he’s taken the lead. He calls when he says he’s going to call. He’s respectful and seems to be a pretty genuine guy.
Again, many thanks!!
